FORCE AND ACCELERATION: Mechanical Advantage and Tension Within Pulley Systems

The law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant. The SI unit of energy is the joule ( J ), and it’s base-unit composition is kg*m2/s2. Energy is the currency needed to perform work, and work is performed upon an object when an applied force moves itContinue reading “FORCE AND ACCELERATION: Mechanical Advantage and Tension Within Pulley Systems”
